Feeling a little sluggish lately? Not waking up in the morning with a “hello world!” attitude? Instead of turning to pills, or calorie-restricting diets, try giving your body what it really needs: foods that nourish mind, body, and planet. Cooking in a way that’s good for you and for the environment—not to mention delicious—doesn’t have to be a pain; in fact, it can be sheer bliss. Blissful Bites sets you down the path to better eating and living. Under the guidance of The Blissful Chef Christy Morgan, you can reap the tasty benefits of eating a diet rich in nutrient-packed ingredients. An advocate of using locally produced foods, Christy organizes her book in a format that makes it easy to prepare seasonal dishes with what’s fresh in your backyard—or at the nearby farmers market. Blissful Bites is a refreshing introduction to the idea that switching to a plant-based diet that uses locally grown and organic products can be easy and rewarding—for both body and mind. Christy’s more than 175 recipes upgrade your diet from a heavily processed one that weighs you down to one that is naturally delicious and light. These plant-based recipes can be followed with the macrobiotic or vegan diet, while satisfying any craving.
